Whats the next boss to take down?

Hi Basil-ers,

Just wondering what boss is next on the list in terms of 'difficulty.'
I can do Normal Mag, Hard Gollux, and Madman pretty easily, except Normal mag can own me sometimes (Still getting used to control)

Is it Hard Hilla, CPB, or something else?
A hero in my world told me CPB is doable at 680k range :o

I have about 350k buffed range, ~150% boss, and 80% pdr

Thank you!

@cb000 I don't know about the orbs but even when I get a bind and kill hilla in 20 seconds, the final 25% of her hp, she gains substantial amounts of PDR even when she's binded and has 0 orbs. Her PDR climbs higher than chaos vellum's defense for sure, as you said in your comment.

Also, I don't know if this has been changed, but Hard Hilla used to cause me to lose %exp every time I died. If you want to take her down, make sure you know if she causes exp loss or not.

[quote=ksilsu]How would you get to over 90% status? I only have like 42 because of Hero skill (30) + 12 from willpower

30% skill + 5%x 5 Cygnus Knights link + 20% lvl100 Willpower + 3% DS Character Card rank S
That should bring you to 88%, which is probably good if you're strong enough. For extra security you can get 30% more from Resistance Potions.

Hard Hilla seems to get a PDR boost whenever she kills someone and gains an orb (up to 5, you can see them above her head). I may be wrong about the exact mechanics, since I don't die too often and don't have enough observational data. But she will go to Cvellum PDR levels and beyond. So...I'd say you should go in with over 90% defense ignore to avoid struggling.

[quote=cb000]You can probably go for Hard Hilla provided you have the status resist to do it (>90%). Hitting even 4m lines can get you through Hard Hilla in ~15min provided you don't get caged.

I'd say Emp and cpb are around the same level, both with ~700k range should suffice. My first cpb solo was with hitting ~17m lines average on cpb (double that on statues obviously), and that was with bad optimization.[/quote]

@Ecarina: cpb is pretty easy as long as you know how to avoid DR

@ecarina if you can't duo pb as a 1m ranged fp with a 2m-2m friend you are stupid

@axel891: That was unnecessarily rude. Just saying, Heros can solo bosses with low ranges, which I find cool. No need to get so insulting.

@Ecarina:still what? you'd be lucky to achieve half of that range due to the cost of % str

@ecarina your range would be around 500k, heroes have the lowest ranges in the game

CPB doable at 680k range makes me want to use a Hero. I'm at around 1m range, my friend is almost at 2m-2m (Cannoneer and BM respectively) and we can't/can barely duo cpb.
